Chapter 333 Priceless Treasure

At this time, Lu Yu stood in the middle of the courtyard, looking at the mentors. His heart was filled with gratitude and respect, and he knew that these mentors really wanted to cultivate him. However, he also knew that choosing a mentor was a very important matter, and he needed to think it through.

He took a deep breath and began to think carefully. He needed to find a mentor who was truly suitable for him, a mentor who could help him grow and improve his strength.

Time passed by minute by minute, and all the mentors were quietly waiting for Lu Yu's choice. They knew that this choice was not only very important to Lu Yu, but also to them. They all hoped to become the mentor of this talented student and witness his growth and rise together.

Finally, amid everyone's anticipation, Lu Yu slowly raised his head.

"You are not suitable to be my mentor!"

In the courtyard of Tiandou Royal Academy, the atmosphere seemed to freeze at this moment. Lu Yu's words were like thunder from the blue sky, which stunned everyone present.

"You are not suitable to be my mentor!"

This sentence, clear and firm, came out of Lu Yu's mouth with unquestionable power. His eyes swept over the instructors, without the slightest fear or hesitation, only firmness and determination.

The instructors looked at each other, their faces full of surprise and confusion. They didn't expect that this seemingly humble and polite young man would reject them so directly.

"What did you say? You actually rejected all of us?" a young mentor asked in disbelief, his voice trembling slightly, obviously deeply shocked by Lu Yu's words.

"Yes, I refuse." Lu Yu answered calmly, his eyes were firm, without the slightest wavering. "I know you are all excellent, with high teaching levels and rich experience. However, what I need is a mentor who can truly understand me, help me tap my potential, and guide me to a higher level. Although you are all very powerful, I don't feel that kind of spiritual fit."

After hearing Lu Yu's explanation, the instructors all frowned. They began to re-examine the young man, trying to find some clues from his words.

"Are...are you sure you're not kidding?" another instructor asked tentatively, his tone full of uncertainty and doubt.

"I'm sure I'm not kidding." Lu Yu answered seriously, "This is a decision I made after careful consideration. I hope you can understand."

The students who were peeking from a distance were also stunned by Lu Yu's words. They all widened their eyes and looked at the new student in disbelief.

"He...he actually rejected all the mentors? This...how is this possible?" a student muttered to himself, his face full of shock and confusion.

"Yeah, what is he thinking? These tutors are the best in the college! He doesn't even choose any of them?" another student also sighed.

Luo Shen stood aside, watching this scene, and was also full of surprise. She didn't expect that Lu Yu would make such a decision. She thought that Lu Yu would choose a mentor who was highly respected, powerful, and knowledgeable as his teacher, but she didn't expect that he would reject everyone.

"Lu Yu, are you sure about your decision?" Luo Shen couldn't help but ask, with a hint of worry and concern in her voice

"Lu Yu, are you too arrogant?" An older instructor couldn't help but ask, with obvious dissatisfaction in his voice, "Who do you think you are? How dare you reject all of us? Do you know that all of our instructors here have been strictly screened and have both strength and experience?"

Lu Yu shook his head slightly, his eyes calm and firm: "I am not arrogant, nor do I underestimate your strength and experience. I am just looking for a mentor who is truly suitable for me. If I can't find such a person, I would rather practice alone."

"Practicing alone?" Another mentor sneered, "Do you think you can go further on this path by your own strength? Without the guidance of a mentor, you are likely to take a detour or even go astray."

"I know this road is not easy, but I am willing to try." Lu Yu answered firmly, "I believe in my intuition and judgment, and I believe I will find my own path."

Hearing Lu Yu's words, the mentors shook their heads and sighed. They couldn't understand the young man's thoughts, nor could they accept his refusal. In their opinion, Lu Yu's choice was undoubtedly stupid and arrogant.

Hearing Lu Yu's words, Luo Shen sighed slightly. Although she didn't understand Lu Yu's decision, she couldn't persuade him to change his mind. So, she could only stand aside silently, watching this young junior face everyone's doubts and confusion alone.

"Lu Yu, do you know what you are doing?" A young tutor could not help but question again, "You are rejecting all of us, which means you are rejecting the best tutor team in the entire academy! Do you think you can go on this path alone?"

"I am not rejecting the entire academy, nor am I belittling your strength and experience." Lu Yu replied calmly.

However, no matter how hard they tried, they could not understand Lu Yu's idea. In their opinion, Lu Yu's choice was undoubtedly stupid and risky. They could not imagine that a young student would dare to reject so many excellent mentors and face the challenges of the future alone.

"Lu Yu, I hope you can reconsider this." An elderly mentor said earnestly, "We know that you may have some special ideas and pursuits, but rejecting all mentors is not the only solution. You can choose a few mentors as your future guidance in cultivation. This will not only meet your needs, but also give us mentors the opportunity to help you."

Hearing the words of the older mentor, Lu Yu nodded slightly. He knew that the mentor had good intentions and understood that his suggestion was a compromise.

"Lu Yu, are you really planning to select a few mentors as your future training guides?" The older mentor spoke again, with a hint of expectation and doubt in his tone.

Lu Yu nodded, his eyes swept over the mentors, his heart full of entanglement. He knew that his choice was crucial to the future, and every step had to be based on a solid foundation. Although he knew this world very well, there would still be many things beyond his expectations, as well as various things he didn't recognize. In terms of cultivation, he really needed enough resources and useful guidance.

"I'm not rejecting all of you, but I'm looking for a way of practice that suits me best." Lu Yu explained, "I was born with two martial souls and full soul power, so my future path will naturally not be bad. But the foundation must be laid firmly for each step, so I need sufficient resources and useful guidance."

After hearing Lu Yu's explanation, the mentors' expressions eased a little. They began to re-examine the young man, trying to find some clues from his words to understand his decision.

"Then how do you plan to choose a mentor?" a young mentor asked curiously. Lu Yu was silent for a while, then slowly said: "I will choose a mentor based on my needs and goals. What I need is a mentor who can give me guidance and help on my path of practice, rather than a mentor who only imparts knowledge and skills to me."

After hearing Lu Yu's words, the mentors fell into deep thought. They began to think about whether they could become the mentor Lu Yu needed and whether they could help him reach a higher level.

However, at this moment, the students watching from a distance were unhappy. They felt that Lu Yu was showing off his talent and strength and looking down on the instructor present.

"Huh, who does he think he is? How dare he choose his tutor like this!" a student said dissatisfiedly.

"That's right. Does he think he's so powerful just because he was born with two martial souls and full soul power? Without the guidance of a mentor, he is nothing!" another student echoed.

As soon as the students finished speaking, they attracted the attention of the instructors. They all turned their heads to look at the students in the distance, their eyes full of dissatisfaction and disappointment.

"What do you students know?" an older teacher shouted angrily, "Lu Yu's choice is his right. What qualifications do you have to point fingers here?"

After hearing the instructor's angry rebuke, the students all shut up. Although they were dissatisfied, they did not dare to refute him.

At this time, Lu Yu's eyes swept over the instructors again. He already had a preliminary choice in his mind.

"I plan to select three mentors as my future training guides." Lu Yu said, "For the first mentor, I hope he can give me guidance and help in martial arts training; for the second mentor, I hope he can give me pointers in soul power training; for the third mentor, I hope he can give me experience and skills in actual combat."

When the instructors heard Lu Yu's choice, they were all surprised. They didn't expect that Lu Yu would put forward his needs and goals so clearly.

"Okay, I agree to be your first mentor!" A middle-aged mentor stood up, his eyes full of determination and confidence, "I have rich experience and unique insights in martial arts training, I believe I can help you reach a higher level."

"I am also willing to be your second mentor!" Another young mentor also stood up, "I have my own experience and understanding in soul power training. I believe I can guide you to better improve your soul power."

"As for the third instructor..." Lu Yu's eyes swept across the instructors, and then stopped on a burly and imposing instructor, "I hope he can become my practical instructor."

The instructor chosen by Lu Yu was slightly stunned, and then showed a look of joy. He did not expect that he would be chosen by Lu Yu as a practical instructor.

"Okay, I promise to be your combat instructor!" he said loudly, "I will pass on all my combat experience and skills to you, so that you can be more comfortable in actual combat."

Hearing the three mentors' agreement, Lu Yu smiled with satisfaction. He knew that his choice was correct. These three mentors were all outstanding in their respective fields, and they could help him improve his strength and realm.

However, at this moment, the students watching from a distance began to talk again. They felt that Lu Yu was showing off his strength and talent and looking down on other instructors and students.

"Huh, who does he think he is? How dare he choose his tutor like this!" a student said dissatisfiedly.

"That's right. Does he think he's so powerful just because he was born with two martial souls and full soul power? Without other mentors and students, he is nothing!" Another student echoed.

Hearing the students' discussions, Lu Yu frowned slightly. He knew that these students' words were not directed at him personally, but at his choices and decisions.

"You may think that I am arrogant and look down on other teachers and students." Lu Yu said, "But what I want to say is that everyone has their own choices and decisions. I am just looking for a way of practice that suits me best, not showing off my strength and talent."

When the students heard Lu Yu's words, they felt dissatisfied.

In the courtyard of Tiandou Royal Academy, the sun was dappled and the breeze was blowing gently. Lu Yu stood side by side with three instructors - Chaos King, Academy Mastermind, and Sword Spirit Instructor. Their figures looked particularly tall in the light and shadow.

"Lu Yu, you are in the limelight today." The King of Chaos joked with a smile, his voice was deep and powerful, and his aura was extraordinary. "The students are talking about you. Do you want to show them your skills and let them see your strength?"

Lu Yu smiled slightly, his eyes swept across the students in the courtyard, his heart as calm as water. "Teacher Tianwang, I don't mean to show off. It's just that since the students have doubts, I am naturally willing to prove my strength."

The academy's wise man nodded gently, his eyes as wise as torches. "Lu Yu, I have heard about your performance in Shrek Academy and know that you are a capable young man. However, here, you still need to be recognized by the students. Show us your skills and let us, the instructors, see your strength."

"Master Zhi Duo Xing, you are too kind." Lu Yu responded modestly, "I will try my best to show my strength and live up to your and Master Tian Wang's expectations."

The sword spirit instructor also spoke, his voice cold and firm. "Lu Yu, I also want to see your strength. I heard that you have twin spirits, and your cultivation is not bad. Show us your skills, let us see your spirit and spirit skills."

Hearing the three instructors' words, Lu Yu smiled slightly, and a sense of pride surged in his heart. "Okay, then I'll show off my skills. However, before that, I want to learn about the strengths and specialties of the three instructors so that I can better demonstrate my strengths."

The three mentors introduced their strengths and specialties respectively, and Lu Yu felt a surge of respect in his heart. He knew that these three mentors were powerful and experienced soul masters, and their guidance and protection were priceless to him.

"Thank you three mentors for your guidance and protection." Lu Yu said respectfully, "I will try my best to show my strength and live up to your expectations."
